Spring has tentatively sprung, the days are longer and your home feels just the wrong side of cosy. If you’re being honest with yourself, it needs…something to shake it up.

Think less spring clean and more spring spruce – the tiniest injection of colour, texture or statement can refresh the energy of a space, ready to invite people in.

According to Etsy, we’re bringing that energy in 2022 through trends like OTT textured pieces, mirrors that make a statement and mood-boosting accents. It’s the logical next step from dopamine dressing your home.

Ahead, we’ve picked some of our favourite pieces from the high street, Etsy and independents to usher in a spring refresh.

Refinery29’s selection is purely editorial and independently chosen – we only feature items we love! As part of our business model we do work with affiliates; if you directly purchase something from a link on this article, we may earn a small amount of commission. Transparency is important to us at Refinery29, if you have any questions please reach out to us.

Given how much time we’ve spent apart from our loved ones recently, is it any wonder we’re craving tactile fabrics, textures and designs? Bouclé is bringing teddy bear energy to otherwise regular pieces of furniture, fluted glassware is shaking up cocktail hour and natural materials are being used in unexpected ways. Layering contrasting textures only enhances the effect.

Ombre has traditionally skewed young, thanks to its playful approach to colour and the kid-friendliness of tie-dye. Now we’re ushering a subtler, more ‘grown-up’ gradient into our homes, from dip-dyed candles to unexpected colour transitions in glassware.
